Where to purchase unpainted painted reflectors?
My car has some paint that is slightly UV faded and I am very picky about color matches so I want my shop to color match the reflectors for me.
Where can I purchase unpainted reflectors that I can then paint for the M3?

1. Thinner than the stock reflectors 2. Made of a material designed to adheer to paint. I've painted a set of reflectors for a different car and the adhesion isn't very good, even if you sand it. You need to fully prep it which takes a long time. Anyways the posts here lead me to this eBay item: http://www.ebay.com/itm/08-09-10-11-...1d417f&vxp=mtr Ultra thin, unpainted, sign me up.

depending on who you get them from they are OEM ones painted to match your car not thinner or any different. stay away from bimmian ones.

Bought mine through mod bargains, and they are OEM and perfect. They came freshly painted, so it leads me to believe you could make a note on the order or call them directly to get them just primed instead. If that's what you want.
